Damnit

reacting to a install where there's no clumps file, that was exactly what I changed. Do you two per chance not use the rev ide? because I use "if revappversion() = "4.5.0" then <create fake clumps file here>".

see also the following information that I sent to richard gaskin, regarding metacard, yesterday:

> that should work fine, as long as you don't use the stack in older versions of rev than 4.0.0 ( not a typo). however, there's 4.0.0 specific problems with mangled entries, and i use a similar check there too, so it's best to stick to 4.5.0.

I was too lazy to include a fix for that. also there's keywords that have "xmlerr, can't find element" as syntax. that too is a problem directly in the source files, and me being too lazy to code a workaround. both problems have been bugzillaed.
